Unturned Plugin Guide (2026)

Unturned servers typically use OpenMod (modern) or RocketMod/LDM (legacy compatibility). OpenMod can run side-by-side with RocketMod if you need older plugins.

Frameworks at a Glance

FrameworkStatusBest For
OpenModActive, recommendedNew servers and modern plugins
RocketMod / LDM / RocketModFixLegacy compatibilityOlder Rocket plugins

Install OpenMod (Manual)

  1. Download OpenMod.Unturned.Module from the official OpenMod releases.
  2. Copy the OpenMod.Unturned folder into the Modules folder of your Unturned server.
  3. Start the server. First launch downloads OpenMod core components.
  4. Configure OpenMod in openmod.yaml and place plugins under openmod/plugins.

Compatibility: OpenMod can detect RocketMod and run alongside it if you need legacy plugins.

Install Plugins (OpenMod)

  • Package manager: Use the OpenMod console command openmod install <packageId>.
  • Manual: Drop plugin DLLs into openmod/plugins and restart.

RocketMod / LDM / RocketModFix (Legacy)

  • RocketMod is no longer actively maintained; most servers use LDM or RocketModFix for compatibility.
  • RocketModFix is a maintained fork that preserves compatibility with older Rocket plugins.

Rocket Plugin Folder

Rocket plugins are commonly placed in:

Servers/<ServerName>/Rocket/Plugins

Best Practices

  • Install one framework at a time, then test before adding more plugins.
  • Keep a backup of Server/ before large plugin changes.
  • Restart the server after installing or updating plugins.

Enhance your server with plugins. Host your Unturned server with Supercraft for easy plugin management.
